The two darker ducklings you have pictured are indeed mallards. However, the other appears to be colored blue fawn. Where did you get them?
We got them at TSC, we asked if they were all Mallard and they said "Well the box says Mallards" and it's my understanding that they usually get mixed assortments

Are you talking about the one that is lighter than the rest?

Yes, I’m talking about the lighter, almost grey colored one. Definitely wrong coloration for mallards as seen compared to the others. Here is a picture of a blue fawn call duckling, you can see the similarity in color(I’m just using this as color comparison, not saying you have a call duck, they wouldn’t be offered at TSC).

That definitely matches the coloring of our little guy, we are excited to see how he/she looks when the feathers come in
